Guessed as much - the Peaceful Muslims are always giving their Silent Approval of Violence

Jbenue: Jonathan is an incompetent leader with many flaws, fact!
Am i a hater for pointing them out?

This is hate bruv Criticism is the practice of judging the merits and faults of something or someone in an intelligible (or articulate) way

You have obviously missed that, this is hate bruv

Is the Bible really the Word of God Almighty (Architect, Allah, Creator, Designer, Fashion Aficionado and eminent Arsenal Fan).ooh gosh it is! then it must be true and because it is the Bible, it is true etcetera

and the tarty old fart never explained hsi role in the disappearance of $16 billion dollars meant for power projects

thoth: I wonder how some people got their impression that with Abacha there was no freedom and posting on the internet would land somebody in jail, I believe it this is the result of brainwashing by reactionary elements and western imperialist media, during and after Abacha 's regime. People would swallow any garbage that comes out of the western media without seeking other sources of information.
i would like to have somebody present a name of an INDIVIDUAL that was jailed or killed by Abacha because he was HONESTLY fighting for freedom. Any person that understands the process of forming and maintaining national policy and also has read of established methods of subversion and distracting the national policies(established or still in process) would clearly see what those puppets are for.
Give me a name and i will give you a good reason why the said individual found himself in that situation.

Abacha remains one of the True Heroes to be remembered throughout Africa.

Waow, just waow - There is such a thing as endemic buffoonery and virulent stoopidity. and I thought hollywood just invented that - well now you know.

bilms: THE NIGERIAN THIEVES ARE THE NIGERIAN HEROES

The Nigerian heroes are the Nigerian thieves,Those we celebrate are people who make us cry,who gives us pain,loot our treasure,keep us underdeveloped and makes us remain poor in the midst of plenty. How i wish we all can stop to celebrate this thieves,deny them respect in public places,make them irrelevant in religious gathering and see them as enemy in youth circle. But that is not the case,we celebrate the thieves we condemn,we accord respect to the destroyer we curse,we praise the rubber we know and appreciate the bad in ourselves. How then do we expect change?

We only pay lip-service to "Wanting Change" we do not truly want CHANGE, we only wish we had it.

jp philips: i seriously doubt the bold part

y' think

canuck: LOL! I recommend you get TWO - A baboon and a dog!!!

Make that a Bloody Baboon and a Bloody Dog

dadde: This is total nonsense, i am not an advocate of religious racketeering but this same brainless government will not ban nude and erotic artist to air their videos.

This can only be done on a government owned station since they are not profit oriented. but i trust any private station desirous of profit will not cut short the source of its livelihood.

which is more profiteering, debases human values to the point of mass-psychosis and does not pay tax

aletheia: ^
Again the Bible trumps frosbel:

Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.
(Job 1:6)
When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
(Job 38:7)
He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.
(Dan 3:25)
Then Nebuchadnezzar spake, and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that trusted in him, and have changed the king's word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God.
(Dan 3:28)

The foregoing verses show clearly that your opinion is wrong and most certainly not in keeping with the witness of the scriptures. Before the Incarnation, Death and Resurrection, and our Adoption, the term "sons of God" was used to describe heavenly beings (angels) as seen in the OT.

touche monsignor aletheia

Nice.. not a bad post either

Na waooh - you think Marriage and Wedding is not a deeper commitment already,give the guy a break! he has to work for the rest of his life taking care of you and the kids, he'd be lucky to outlive you given half the chance

Goshen360: ^^^
Have you read the book of Enoch? If you have read it, what does it say about this subject?

Nice to know some Bible readers understand that the council of Trent discounted a whole lot of Books (it seemed) that threw a lot of dust in their pristine collection of scripture they deemed divinely inspired

Nasiru ahmad: Peace and blessing of allah be upon to you.iam here writing this topic of disscution (islam is against any violent) the reason for writing this topic is because of what is recently happining in Nigeria especialy its nothern parts.Islam is a religion of peace and hermony & does not allow any muslim to go and destroid any church.& Moreso i bleave even in bible there is no any chapter,verse that said christans they shall go & destroid mosque. So all what is happining now is totaly codaim in islamic religion.& also in christianity so aim using this opotunity to call whit great voice upon any muslims & christans to come & unite to gether for developing of our great nation.& continue praying to see the end of these crisis in here Nigeria & world atlarge.

I thank you for this post. it is very rare to see or hear Peace-loving Muslims come out in public to defend the Character of Islam (which for all intentions is VIOLENT) as being non-violent, religiously-tolerant and 21st Century-compatible. You are a rare breed indeed. I wish the remaining closet peaceful muslims will grow a backbone and prove ISLAM a Religion of Peace (and Understanding and Tolerance and 21st Century-Compatible)

I know the rest of other peaceful Muslims are deeply engrossed in peaceful topics on the ISLAM Section, I pray they see this a perhaps provide the much needed insight to a version of ISLAM that is Peaceful.

rully2: My good people of NL. Plss I need to make inquiry on a development I find rather disturbing and I'm wondering if its just me or anyone else here has encountered such.

Recently I have been looking to buy a car and I threaded into Google Trade site. Yes I came across some good cars but what is baffling is that most of the contacts I called are either asking for money to be paid to an account number to either clear the car from customs or money to transport the car to my destination.

I have not done any such thing of transferring money to an account o..but I want to know, are these people genuine dealers? Is it a normal transaction to be asking for money to clear a car or transport it to my destination??

PLS and PLS your knowledge and contributions would be of immense help. Thanks

Nairaland has several cases of Dealers taking your money as agreed on their adverts and milking you for more in other unexplained charges - eventually when you get the car you have paid a fortune for, it is not worth the value you paid for it and has soo many problems you will live the rest of your year regreting why you did.

Never pay a Car Dealer you do not know or has not been revealed on Nairaland as a Honest Dealer or has not signed an official document or contract with terms of payment and penalties for default.

The internet provides a great cover for fraud

I think the intention is justifiable but the course and implementation will be fraught with challenges.
1: Is the potential father (mostly unemployed, illiterate area and ghetto boys and rapists) capable of providing any sort of support (financial, emotional) to the pregnant (soon-to-be-single-recharge-card-selling-mother) woman. What is State Welfare's Role in this
2: What if the Father denies (most do) - are we to wait for a DNA test after (the Fact) to make him obligated to pay (after the fact)

This trend has been the norm since I experienced first hand a friend's case with his pregnant girl-friend and her parents back in Secondary school. It is very much common-place. Why has our State and Federal Institutions not provided a platform to Educate and Support Single Teenage Mothers.

LAGOS State (it seems are at the forefront of Social and Civil creativity) should tackle this case based on already available Research on the theme and follow recommendations as provided. It is not a complex issue and happens all over the world (to say the least)

To all GEJ-Lovers, you cannot live on Words and Hope, Action Speaks for itself

I expect this after GEJ ate Cassava Bread, soon Governors will troop out eating Alomo and pekere by the road side SMH

Confirmed - The Dude is Clinically DEAD - does not change a thing for Kwara though

Beaf: This is quite a foolish answer.
How come Nigeria is so underdeveloped then? How come GEJ inherited 10 million almajiri's from previous govts? How come the groundnut pyramids vanished? How come cocao, rubber, oil palm etc disappeared? How come Nigeria has 167 million people, all dependent on oil from the Niger Delta?

There are a thousand and one other questions.

Some of you need to stop proferring daft retorts to everything.

Every President inherits the SINS of all other Presidents before him not their Legacies. Unfortunately the constitution cannot keep GEJ there for another 8 years. He can only do his (very) best in his time. All the more reason to nail-down critical reforms like Power+Oil and leave the rest future Presidents.

Ohh bugger! how unfortunate

Senator David Mark. I only need to mention your name once because you are obviously a buffoon with the brain of a tadpole in muddy waters.
Poverty (economic disenfranchisement) is a breeding ground for Religious Fundamentalism. It is a Statistical Fact that the Youth and Poverty is a potent formula for Social/Religious Conflict. What you have are millions of illiterate, poor and easily agitated youths whose idle minds have been hijacked for the purpose of Political/Economic Sabotage.

Each Senator understands the Political play that is on-going otherwise A State of Emergency should have been declared in states where Boko-Haram have waged suicide bomb-attacks. What happened to Joshua Dariye when the Jos attacks put his administration in bad light.

It is a wonder how you passed through the Nigerian Army where Discipline in Thoughts, Words and Actions are deeply ingrained in each Soldier's mind. While you are a brilliant example of stellar Incompetence, Corruption and years of Mindless Buffoonish Public statements e.g "Cellphones are not meant for the poor". It will be wise (just this once) to inform the public
1: Why Northern Governors can only Condemn (in very soft terms) and not take Action where Nigerians are routinely murdered in broad daylight.
2: Why their states hosts Boko-Haram members in numbers and have been funded by State Revenue and Public Officers (from the North) to continue their attacks.
3: Why High-ranking BH members are arrested, allowed to escape and re-arrested with no explanation on how,why this happens.
4: Why arrested BH members are not prosecuted for Murder but are released to Islamic Clerics for Rehabilitation into Society (or Release into Society to continue killing)

It is not your fault,Nigerians are always fond of taking Human Rights, Freedom and Democracy for granted, how else will a half-wit baboon like yourself seat and make decisions on-behalf of 150 million Nigerians

One more thing.. David Buffoon [b]it is 72 Virgins not 17 [/b]and you should be careful how you make references to the Koran and Hadith, I think you are poking fun at ISLAM not just Boko-Haram

@SSaemoenl - you should be in Comedy

CastleandGreen: when they come back you will be the first to be killed.

ooooh dear, which bad leader are you? Politician,Pastor or Iman or are you just an offspring of the maggots who pilfer and loot this country

Deport them all so they can come home and buckle-up and kill their bad leaders and pastors and imans

Muslims Leaders - especially the ones of Northern extraction are simply making comfortable (Politically-correct) excuses. It is this same ISLAMIC Leadership that kept quiet for over 4 decades of Religious Conflicts in the North that saw many non-Muslims lose their lives and properties to religious bigotry, hate and continuing stark incompetence of the political leadership to do anything about it other than pay lip-service to a bunch of bearded child-molesters and rapists carrying the koran as an excuse to cause violence. That has been the history and it has not changed. Have these buffoons realized that they have had that many years of history to tackle the problem?

It is now common-place to speak through the rotting arsse of junk newspapers condemning just about anything from a toilet paper to a BOKO-HARAM attack. Condemning BOKO-HARAM will not stop the violence,neither will it stop the Violent teachings of ISLAM, neither will it bring about peace or create some miraculous air of religious tolerance. ACTION is what is needed not Condemnation

Dumdum217: meaning...?

they are mealy-mouthed illiterates who know nothing else but ISLAM and VIOLENCE and RAPE and Crimes against Women and Children - They are Racists Bigots with high-levels of Social,Psychological and Economic Insecurities and they feel people should feel insecure because they practice ISLAM. QED
